Through My Lens : Recently On Instagram

A few highlights of this past month as seen on Instagram which serves as my unofficial food diary and love letter to NYC. I also post quick reviews here and there. And just like that it's October! September was a great month. Leading through into the first week of autumn, it still felt like summer which was actually pretty wonderful. The cooler temperatures are settling in now. For more, click on over to Instagram and do follow if you like what you see.

New York may be known as an urban jungle but the many pocket parks in the city are perfect for a little respite from the daily hustle and bustle. This is one of my favorites and it just happens to be across the street from our apt.

Signs of fall... this vignette of leaves on the ground was just beckoning to be photographed.

Ice cream served in a taiyaki fish pastry cone sounds fun but this is a concept that requires flawless execution. I shared our experienceat the newly opened Taiyaki NYC and it was not good. Don't believe the hype!

I know there's more advertising than editorial but I still enjoy leafing through the pages of the September issues.

New York I love you and probably just a little more every year when 9/11 rolls around. Never forget.

A few new acquisitions including an adorable pouch, the prettiest cushion compact and a luxe lip oil/balm.

The Beaux Arts facade of the Surrogate Court Building never fails to catch my eye when I walk by because it's so striking. That's also probably why it's appeared in countless film and television productions.

I think you should publish a coffee table book about NY! I'm sure that any photo-book including your photography would be stunning, but I think that NY would be a such a perfect subject for you. I'm positive that a NY themed book by you would be marvellous. Just an idea!

1/2. I love that first park photo and the second one with leaves is lovely as well.

3. How cute is that ice-cream!

4. It's been a while since I bought a fashion magazine, but I watched a few documentaries about the fashion industry recently and they have been fascinating.

I recently been seeing the RMS Luminizer on YouTube and am really tempted to pick it up. This is the first time I'm seeing a mention of the RMS Lip2Cheek product, is it good on the lips too? Most lips and cheeks products are a touch drying for the lips.

Rowena, that pizza pic is calling my name right now! LOL I'm so hungry right now. LOL I've always wanted to try a New York or Chicago pizza. You guys have the best :D I love transition seasons. It's the best weather. When the leaves turn I think they look so beautiful. Gotta love September issues.http://www.averysweetblog.com/

I find your recent photos on IG sooo perfectly matched with the transition from summer to fall. I love seeing NYC through your camera because it always looks gorgeous. I haven't had ice-cream for a very long time and this one looks so yummy! Happy October, Rowena!
